Matthew Perry's death came as a devastating shock. To me, this is like losing a real great friend and family member. Perry brought so much joy and laughter to many while he suffered in complete silence, fighting his own struggles and personal demons. He was my favorite character from a show that defined one of the best times of my life and also helped me get through some difficult, depressing, painful ones in my early adult years. I will miss him, and I pray he found peace before he passed. My deepest condolences to all of his loved ones.🙏🏼💔😭🩵

[@Autumn_Forest_]

No one could have played that role anywhere close to as funnily as Matthew Perry did. He MADE that character, even though someone else invented it. His acting and comedic timing were SUPERB. On a deeper note, Matthew was abandoned by his father at a young age. All the fathers out there should take note; you are extremely important to your children and how they turn out. I say this as an abandoned daughter who has also been negatively impacted by my parents’ negligence and cruelty.

[@judyoger]

He was a versatile actor, I loved him in The Ron Clark Story, while he had comedic talent he did other genre's very well. To his Father John Bennett Perry, his sister Mia, and his Mother Suzanne Perry my deepest condolences, his audiences will miss him dearly, but family is the greatest gift he knew in his life.

I woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and for some reason I checked my phone to see what time it was (I don't usually do that) and it was everywhere. This is one of those times where I am actually speechless. Like I couldn't even get a word or a sound out for a full 10 minutes because I was in such a shock (and still am). Now I've been crying nonstop for about 30 minutes. I haven't even gotten to check or read some of the posts from the cast or other celebrities. I literally bought his book a few weeks ago but haven't gotten around to read it. I genuinely feel like a friend died and I am not ashamed to admit it. It's gonna be hard watching Friends now.
